They even do that weird thing with their hand when they write, where I don't.

I'm afraid I have no idea what you're talking about! :D


When some lefties write, they hold their hand in a very awkward position. All the ink and lead end up on the outer part of their hand as a result.

What can I say, Expatri, I'm just a girl stuck in a man's world. :P

I'm not sure what to make of that. Half of me says it was an entirely innocent remark, the other half has me sniggering like a schoolboy.

No...just Scottish.

Just the remark I expected, thanks for not disappointing me.

Lol. Hate to ruin the fun but that was completely innocent. I usually make it known when I'm being a shithead.  :D

Well, I'd be more inclined to call it ambidextrous. But there are some things I prefer to do with my right hand.


Even I am not going to go there...:P

Well, after you were good enough to set it up so nicely for me, how could I disappoint?

I do make it a bit easy for you sometimes for sure. Must try and stop doing that.

Incompetent, inadequate, incapable, bungling shower of useless idiots. My words of the day for my phone-line suppliers. 
What a shower of stupid

There should be a land for the stupid. Remove all warning labels and let the issue sort itself out. :P

I get irked with people that can't speak a lick of English. When asked to speak to someone else, they replace that person with someone far worse. Or there's that automated crap. Ugh!

Well, we're all stupid at some time or other. I usually try not to hold it against people. :P

If there was it would be full of British telecom engineers.
Can't make or receive a phone call, internet unstable and all because they have done something at the local telephone exchange. Best of all they admit it is something they have done but they don't know what or when it will be fixed.

Neither do I usually. 
BT are an exception though as they keep doing things like this time and time again, so they deserve all criticism that is coming there way.

Yes and like everything else that was state owned it was privatised (sold off cheaply) and all they care about now is profit not the customer.

Ah yes...privatization. That always makes thing SO much better...

Hit the nail on the head there. 
They privatised our railways, now you can barely afford the fare for the train, that's if your lucky enough to be near one now. I'm not.
They privatised the utility companies now gas & electricity are barely affordable. For some people it's heat or eat. 
They just privatised the royal mail (sold it for pennies to be honest) watch the price of sending mail soar in the future.

The current big privatization bug-a-boo on this side of the big water is prisons.
Yes...prisons.
Surely nothing can go wrong with THAT scenario...

They are as good as privatised here too, still state controlled at the moment but private security contractors responsible for them in all but name.
Yeah nothing bad can possibly come from that scenario.

I can safely say I've never seen a Death Race movie, sounds like I'm the lucky one going by your response.

It stars Jason Statham. I tend to enjoy his performances ever since I saw The Transporter. (Or was it Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels?) Anyway, the new Death Race movies don't have particularly much to do with the old Death Race 2000.
